No doubt, she was paid a ton of money, didn’t have to interact with any of her four former co-stars nor the current show runner. I wouldn’t be surprised if she got Patricia Fields to do her personal wardrobe for the scenes lol. Kim Catrall is a true G.

The show was obviously willing to accept her terms so what does that say?

I am so thrilled about this. The article explains it's only one scene and, yes, Pat Field DID dress her for it!

Honestly, I think she may have done this more for the fans than anything else. It will be SO good to see her again even once.

Considering the fact that SJP is an executive producer of AJLT, you know she had to sign off on this. In fact, if you look at the production credits, you will see that both she and Cynthia Nixon are both executive producers, so yes, they definitely had a say and had to have agreed with the terms. Anyone who believes otherwise just doesn’t know the business of show business.

From what I have read many fans were continually asking why Samantha’s side was not included and were irritated by it.  Whether the show gets it right or not, is anyone’s guess but judging by all the criticism Season One got, the show’s producers had to do something more than just relying on the return of twice dumped Aidan to save the show’s fortunes.

Wow, I admit that I made that statement before reading the article. From what I read some time ago when KC was honored by Variety Women, Pat Fields spoke as though she had seemingly cut ties with the SATC/AJLT franchise so she had to have returned because of Catrall.

What are you talking about? I am not stan or fan of these people and I don't care at all. I just tell what I feel. All while following the topic and rules. But people like you act like gestapo police. This is isn't your house... Don't tell people what to do.

I'll take it, even though it will probably be a blink-and-you'll-miss-it scene. KC very likely asked for certain conditions to be met, including financial compensation, script approval et al., and she got them. 

Personally, I thought it was awful the way AJLT slyly trash-talked the character of Samanatha in season 1, and during promotions, the AJLT cast were all "Kim is never coming back" -- like it was their decision to fire Catrall or something.

What all this says is that HBO Max is sufficiently concerned about AJLT's longevity and SLs. The network wants a reason for fans to tune into season 2. It was an entertaining hate-watch in season 1, but that's not sustainable season-to-season.

Honestly, Im surprised it got a second season bc I went into the first thinking it was just going to be a limited series. A window into where the girls are at now. Im fine with it being 2 and done. The concept isnt meant to go on indefinitely

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      Paula and Jeanne’s first time writing Alex and Stephanie. It didn’t seem like there were any changes in Alex at all lol but I can’t help  but think that that’s more on RSW than the writing. I didn’t see a big change with Stephanie either, but I did enjoy her scenes with Kayla, whose character has gotten so much stronger since last week. I hope we get to see a lot more of their relationship, and their relationship with Steve as well. As for Steve and Shawn stealing the drug to try to save Bo, idk. I don’t dislike it, but I just don’t know lol but I also think that it is time for Steve to pass the torch on to the next hero.  And finally, Javi showed some kind of spark! I was a little worried in his first scene today that he was going to continue to be so obsessed with Leo, but him demanding that Leo drop the investigation into Rafe and Gabi could actually be pretty interesting. I don’t think that would’ve happened under Ron. And if we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, let them at least have some kind of actual conflict, instead of the forced, biased crap that we were subjected to. And speaking of Leo, one year ago today, he got Dimitri’s letter

      Btw, why is Gabi so beholden to Javi? Cousin or not, if I was her, the minute he said to her, “If he goes, I go”, I would’ve been like  Also, are they going to go there with Philip and Gabi? I’d prefer that than Gabi getting involved with Alex.

      Yes. I don't know if Lenore was ever asked. Then it became a nun. Thanks. I didn't realize it was in 1987. That timeline doesn't make a lot of sense even if she would have had Ed to interact with. If they didn't ask her back in 1989 and she was willing, what a stupid error. The attempts at these feuds, or even the whole families tied together stuff like Maryanne Carruthers, never had any real impact because of how depleted the Bauers felt even by the mid '80s. And instead of expanding them, which would have been common sense, various producers were just too lazy, or too ashamed, and kept bringing on other families, or bringing in too many people at one time and not knowing how to write for them (the Spauldings in the McTavish era - as SOD said at the time, everyone in the family had the same personality).

      Wasn't there talk of them bringing back Rita as Gus' mother at one point? Or something?

      I think they are a part of the same family, although Carla was never really scheming for the same reasons, and once her double life was exposed, she stopped.

      Rachel/Ada, Mona/Erica, a mother/daughter at LOVING, these are all examples of the Agnes Nixon "troublesome daughter/put upon mother" trope. Are Carla/Sadie by any chance one of the pairs that make up this trope? Another thing that these 2 shows might have in common. OLTL had a very strong thematic approach to socioeconomic differences between groups of people. Class differences. AW at an earlier point had this too but to be clear it was not as much as OLTL. So that is a similarity but marginal.  Besides that, I see no other comparable things. Paul Rauch was a very different EP at different shows. Oh, I've thought of one more thing. Using actors from the Broadway stage.  But, realistically that was something all of the NY shows had in common. So I don't think it has any uniqueness between AW & OLTL.
